Despite an angry chair and microphone, Nick survives a perilous four minutes to give you an update on what's happening. The good news is that new episodes of Where There's Smoke can finally be seen on the distant horizon. The "bad" news is that we've still got to get there (and with Nick's technical issues that could take awhile). Remember to visit www.wheretheressmoke.co.  

Brett abruptly starts the episode and the countdown to the world exploding has begun. Then, for no clear reason, Nick explains his theory on "Yellow Submarine". After that, Nick inserts some post-production sounds to celebrate a big moment. Lastly, with an eye on the next set of WTS episodes, there's probably too much conversation about the production schedule. Enjoy? * * * ALSO, make sure to check out our new Anchor station!

First, Brett calls Nick "Nicholas". It's weird and nobody says anything about it.

Schedules have made a new episode difficult, so instead you get to listen to Nick's dulcet tones as he gives you some updates on what's been going on. See you next week!

As the proverbial WTS bus leaves the station, Brett and Nick sit down and talk about the power of delegating. They also discuss the perils of perfectionism.

Brett is in Mexico City and chats with Nick about his two big ideas to help promote the show over the next couple of weeks. (Hint: It includes best-of lists and TED Talks.) Nick finds a way to share very little, but is very passionate about a new website (finally!). They also talk about whether or not Where There's Smoke is an "artisanal podcast".

After meeting up in Kansas City and Brett's birthday week, Brett and Nick talk about all of the little things that are about to happen in the next few weeks. Last week, Nick and Brett asked their listeners for help promoting the show ("Who wants on the bus?"). This week, they chat with Theresa Ward about how to structure this next step of organization and productivity. You may remember her as "Nick's Future Best Friend". As you will hear, that is sounding more and more likely. * * * If you have any creative or organization skills and you want to help us on this journey, please email us at connect@wheretheressmoke.co.  ALSO, make sure to check out our new Anchor station!

After a few weeks of "What should we do next?", Brett and Nick decide on two communities where they will plant their flags. Plus: they hear from listeners about where they hangout (both online and IRL) and one of those listeners may or may not be a cat with a podcast. And Nick asks about bots.

Brett and Nick already know how to make a good podcast. They make a show called Where There’s Smoke. They don’t, however, know how to get people to hear it. “How Do We Do This?!” is a podcast all about trying to promote that OTHER podcast. Follow Bret Gajda and Nick Jaworski, hosts of Where There’s Smoke, as they learn the ins-and-outs of marketing a podcast. Topics include search engine optimization, social media engagement, project management, show design - basically whatever will help us promote our other show. It’s meta and perfect for us. And, hey! While you’re waiting for new episodes of HDWDT, there are over 50 episodes of the award-winning Where There’s Smoke for you to check out. You’d save us a lot of time if you could go there, too.
